Steps:
- 1. For Cake: Sift together all the dry ingredients several times - cake and muffin mix, instant coffee, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- 2. In stand mixer, using paddle, starting on slow speed blend dry ingredients with eggs (one at a time).
- 3. Add yogurt, milk, oil. Blend on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
- 4. Add apples and nuts. Blend a few more minutes until all ingredients are incorporated scraping the sides often.
- 5. CINNAMON SWIRL (best to do this after batter has been mixed as it only takes a minute). Melt butter. Add sugars and cinnamon. If mixture is too thick add a few teaspoons of milk until the consistency of gravy.
- 6. Pour your batters in prepared pans. For this one I used 6 mini loaf pans, filling to about 3/4 full. Test Kitchen Note: We used a 9x13 pan.
- 7. Dollop cinnamon swirl onto the batter 2 tablespoons at a time.
- 8. With a knife, gently swirl the cinnamon through being careful not to touch the bottom. NOTE: I learned the hard way, it sticks to the bottom and cake is difficult to get out.
- 9. BAKE @ 350 for how however many minutes, depending on size pan. For the mini loaf pans, it took 30-33 minutes. It also depends on your oven. Test Kitchen Note: It took 40 minutes for our 9x13 pan.
- 10. If you want an icing, with a mix whisk 3 tbsp of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1-2 tbsp of almond milk.
- 11. Drizzle or spread over cooled cakes.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Apples: For the best flavor and texture, select firm, slightly tart apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
- Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense coffee cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use Fresh Spices: Freshly ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger give the coffee cake the best flavor. If you only have pre-ground spices, use half the amount called for in the recipe.
- Don't Skimp on the Crumb Topping: The crumb topping is what makes this coffee cake so special. Be sure to use good-quality butter and brown sugar, and mix the topping until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Bake the Coffee Cake Until a Toothpick Inserted into the Center Comes Out Clean: This is the best way to ensure that the coffee cake is cooked through.
Conclusion:
This apple spice coffee cake is the perfect treat for a fall morning. It's moist, flavorful, and has the perfect amount of sweetness. With its tender crumb and buttery streusel topping, this coffee cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
